Condolences

Condolence From: Arntfield Family- Dave, Kathy,Jen, Jaq, Rob & AJ
Condolence: Wendy and family we just heard of your horrible loss. We are all so sorry to hear. It has been many years but Kathy and I still often reminisce over the fun times we had on Havendale. They were special years and we have so many great memories. We could never have had better next door neighbours and Paul was also such a great teammate in the baseball league.

We send our love and condolences and at the same time feel blessed to have shared those years with Paul, you and the kids.

Condolence From: Brad Gray
Condolence: Paul and I never grew up together in Winnipeg. We were friends for almost 60 years. We played Hockey, Football and Baseball together in those younger years when making friends was easy because of the shared love of sports and competition. We were adversaries and teammates depending on the sport.

Even back then he always had a smile on his face and always a nice thing to say about something or somebody.
Paul was always a class act who loved his family deeply and always held his friends in high regard.

In the past 4 or 5 years our mutual friend Reg(also from back in Winnipeg)and Paul and I made a yearly get-together to play golf and go to a Jays game and get silly as only Paul could do(thanks to Wendy for allowing us our childish celebrations)and just be who we were. Those of you who knew Paul know what we mean.

Paul I loved you as one of my oldest friends and respected you incredibly for the person you were. Your regard for Family and Friends was who you were, dedicated to the end.

Reg who is overseas shares all these thoughts and Paul, Rest in Peace my friend. I will miss you beyond belief.

"Fore"

Your buddy Brad

Condolence From: Chris Zelkovich
Condolence: I was shocked and saddened to learn of Paul's passing today. He was such a vibrant guy and a great teammate. I met Paul just last year in the Oakville Men's Masters Slo-pitch League, but have great memories of his fun-first attitude and his habit of supporting his teammates, especially when things weren't going well. He was the kind of guy you dream of having on your team. My deepest condolences to the family.

Condolence: My most sincere condolences Wendy . I came to know Paul (or Mr. Ritchie as you very often lovingly referred to him) through our many chats on the golf course , a wonderful man and very much adored by his family and friends. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts.

Condolence From: Jim & Kathy Groskurth (Redlight)
Condolence: Our sincere sympathy to Wendy and family. We know Paul through our Carlisle hockey group. I had the extreme pleasure to play against Paul as a goaltender. He was a tenacious forward player who was always in the right spot to shoot or deflect the puck past me. He always was a gentleman in front of me, and we had many positive discussions about our play. We will truly miss his smile and positive outlook.
Kathy and I are out of the country and will be unable to attend his visitation. Our thoughts and prayers are with Wendy and family.
